Guild Wars 2

So, I just hit level 11 and got my first trait point and I have no idea what to put it in. If it matters at all I’ve been running with Great Sword and Mace/Torch or Mace/Focus. I’m not sure if those are good things to run with, but that’s just what I’ve been running with.

I plan on playing mostly solo, while jumping in on events whenever they are present. Any ideas what I should put my points in to?

Well first make sure you buy a trait book so you can use your trait points! But Vitality and Toughness are good traits to add points to when it comes to the Guardian because they were built to be a tank type of class. With a good amount of health and defense you will be standing longer and taking hits for your party in events/dungeon. The greatsword does good dps so adding points to your power trait is a good idea too.

I play a level 80 Guardian and my traits go as follows:
20 Power
0 Percision
20 Toughness
25 Vitality
5 Virtues

There’s always different ways to play each class, but this is how I went about it. Hope this helps!

For leveling, 15 Radiance for Renewed Justice then 5 Virtue for Inspired Virtues. The rest is preference.

Ability to reset and spam Virtue of Justice on AoE (thus apply Might with Inspired Virtues for yourself and the everyone else) is a must for any leveling build (especially with Greatsword AoE).

My advise is figure out what YOU want to do. Then go to the grandmaster traits and look what all the traits of that line do. Once you figure out what they all do plan out what you want. Me for example i wanted to be more support/tanky. I looked threw my traits and found out 0/0/20/30/20 was the best build for me.
